Hi peter.

mine takes a bite at pellets once in awhile. i guess it feels left out that everyone is eating this hard biscuit and he's all alone. but then he can't get it into his mouth. perhaps i should try smaller ones or pre-soaking them first.

keeping the body mass on YLN is not as easy as other fishes i find, due to their skinny nature and tiny mouths. i feed mine 3 times a day with frozen if i'm at home, or 2 times if i'm not at home.

pellets would definitely help in keeping it robust though.
